    I suspect you have too many ads positionned above your content. Don't take this the wrong way, but when I first saw your site, I thought it had no content. When I find myself on a site like that, I usually hit Back.

    I think the problem might be relevancy, I see a nice Ipod, but your site seems to be about hosting.

    I think that is a general problem with chitika, the ads are for products, not services which I think would do better on your page. Might be worth a try to search the availible ad inventory for relevant products, but I'm hard pressed to come up with something that might fit.


    Only my oppinion ofcouse.

    I use the different ad examples on the chitika page, there is a search tap on each where you can look after stuff.

    I find that my eyes are instantly drawn to the images you place above your adsense ads. If I didn't come from this forum specifically looking for a chitika ad, I would have missed it.

    goto Shopping.com, search for related products to your website content. COPY and PASTE the product names as your Chitika ads keywords. You get more specified and content related ads in this way.

    I had a pretty good day with chikita yesterday, what I did was this - place a tracker from adfreestats.com on the page with the eminimalls. then I watched it to see what products my users clicked on, then search and found similar products with chikita and changed the ad to non-contextual and stuffed it with related products. The result is a ctr on par with the adsense I used to have on the page (and 3x the earnings).

    The code looks fine, maybe you need to be more specific?
